Why Parents Love Our Childcare Community?

Choosing the right childcare centre is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. Your child needs to find a place where they can thrive, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. At Little Zak’s Academy, we’ve built a warm, trustworthy, and supportive environment that families love.

This guide explores what makes our childcare centres so special and why so many parents trust us to support their little ones’ early development.

What Sets Little Zak’s Apart?

Feels like Home

We’ve designed our purpose-built childcare centres to feel just as peaceful as home, so children can feel completely at ease. We’ve worked hard to create interior spaces that are calm and welcoming, along with outdoor areas that are perfect for little ones to explore and have fun.

Educators with Passion

At the heart of any childcare centre are the people who look after the children. Our team at Little Zak’s is made up of fully qualified, genuinely passionate educators who care deeply about child development and early learning. They get to know each child very well and work closely with families to understand their individual needs.

Learning that Counts

We don’t aim to simply educate. Our mission is to help children fall in love with learning. Using the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) as our guide, we focus on play-based learning, which allows little ones to learn at their own pace and in their own way. We’re also keen on helping children become confident little social butterflies and get as school-ready as possible. Every single thing we do is carefully thought-out and aimed at helping every child reach their full potential.

School Readiness Focus

The main reason parents choose Little Zak’s Academy is because of our genuine emphasis on school readiness. We see our Prep School Program as a critical part of helping children get off to the best possible start in kindergarten. We help each child build the skills they need to make that transition run as smoothly as possible. Our school readiness program includes

  • Early Literacy & Numeracy: Every day we do activities that help build confidence in reading, writing and counting — just the kind of things that help little ones take their first wobbly steps towards learning.
  • Social Skills Training: The way we set up group play and daily routines helps children to learn to take turns, understand others’ feelings, and work together as a team.
  • Structured Learning: We help children become familiar with what it’s like to be in a classroom, where they learn what to expect, how to behave, and how to follow routines.
  • Fine Motor Skill Exercises: We give children plenty of opportunities to practice pre-writing and other activities that help them develop the hand-eye coordination they need to write and draw, and keep their bodies active.

Exciting Extra-Curriculars

We’re not content to just babysit. We offer a range of included extra-curricular activities ot keep little minds excited about coming into our centres day after day.

Yummy, Healthy Meals

Nutrition is crucial for your children to grow and develop properly, and at Little Zak’s Academy, we take it seriously. Our on-site chefs do a fantastic job of cooking up fresh, balanced meals that cater to all kinds of needs. And they aren’t just healthy meals; they’re meals children will actually enjoy eating.

Spotless and Safe

We have extremely high standards when it comes to cleanliness and safety — after all, these are the things that give parents peace of mind when they’re at work. We keep everything spick and span and use materials designed to be safe for little ones. We also have premium security systems, enough qualified staff to provide our children with the individual attention they need, and educators who know exactly what to do in an emergency.

Keep in Touch

We believe that you should be kept informed about what your child is up to, from what they eat to what they learn and how they’re growing. We use a mix of daily updates, newsletters, parent meetings and our parent communication app to keep you in the picture because we’re a team when it comes to helping your kid grow.
